Alignment and Grade Clause Samples
Alignment and Grade. The sewers and storm water lines shall be laid to alignment and gradient shown on the drawings but subject to such modifications as shall be ordered by the Engineer from time to time to meet the requirements of the works. No deviations from the lines, depths of cutting or gradients of sewers shown on the plans and sections shall be permitted except at the express direction in writing of the Engineer.
Alignment and Grade. The pipelines shall be laid and maintained to lines and grades established by the Drawings and Specifications, with fittings, valves and hydrants at the required locations unless otherwise approved by the Engineer. Valve-operating stems shall be oriented to allow proper operation. Hydrants shall be installed plumb.
Alignment and Grade. All pipe shall be laid and maintained to the required lines and grades, with fittings at required locations, manholes and catch basins as approved by the Engineer.
Alignment and Grade. All building sewers shall be laid to a straight line to meet the following:
A. Recommended grade at one-fourth (1/4) inch per foot.
B. Minimum grade of one-eighth (1/8) inch per foot.
C. Minimum velocity of 2.00 feet per second with the sewer half full.
D. Any deviation in alignment or grade shall be made only with the written approval of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ County Environmental Health Department and shall be made only with approved fittings.
Alignment and Grade. The permissible deviation of the alignment and grade of each culvert and pipeline shall be 20mm from the specified line and level, or from the line between culvert or pipe inverts at successive manholes or catch pits, as applicable, when measured over any 7m length, and all such deviations shall be gradual. Reverse falls are unacceptable.”
Alignment and Grade. All pipes shall be laid to the design lines and grades within the following tolerances:
a) Horizontal tolerance of plus or minus 50 mm from specified alignment.
b) Vertical tolerance of plus or minus 25 mm from specified grade. Granular Bedding and Backfill in Pipe Zone The pipe zone is considered as being the depth of trench between the trench bottom and a level 300 mm above the top of the pipe. The pipe zone backfill shall be hand placed and compacted to a density of 95% Standard ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Density in layers not exceeding 150 mm using hand tampers. Tie-ins to Existing Watermains Connection of a new pipe to an existing watermain shall be undertaken under the supervision of the Town. Only Town staff may operate valves and curb stops on the existing watermains. A minimum of 72 hours’ notice to construct a tie-in is to be provided to the Town. Materials Testing Material quality and compaction testing shall be conducted on aggregates, bedding sand and trench backfill and shall include, but not be limited to, density analysis of utility pipe zone and trench zone backfill to confirm compliance with these standards. The frequency of tests shall be as described in SECTION 2 - Roadways and Walkways, Item 3.10.
